Substantial family home on a prime residential road.
Description
Originally built in 1936 and later extended by the current owners in 2012, Keene House is a rarely available, handsome Arts and Crafts style family house situated in a highly sought after residential road within approximately 0.7 mile of the High Street and 0.7 mile to the beautiful Merrow Downs.
The generous accommodation is ideally suited to families offering flexibility and is very well presented over three floors. The house is in very good order throughout and boasts characterful interiors and remarkable proportions.
Upon entering is a welcoming reception hall with parquet flooring and a feature fireplace, the hallway leads to the kitchen, three reception rooms (family room, dining room, drawing room) and a study. All reception rooms boast excellent proportions, high ceilings and feature fireplaces.
The dual aspect drawing room in particular is a fabulous space with Herringbone oak parquet floor continued from the entrance hall with doors opening on to the garden, this room works extremely well for entertaining and relaxing.
The charming kitchen to the rear has been designed in a traditional style and features an AGA, wooden cabinetry and original beams.
The adjoining modern dining area is filled with natural light with its glass ceiling, bifold doors and delightful views towards the garden and access to the paved terrace. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room and traditional larder.
The cloakroom off the entrance hall completes the downstairs accommodation.
A striking staircase leads to the first floor with its spectacular principal bedroom with a dressing room, this space boasts impressive bay windows, garden views and a large en suite with bath, shower and separate WC. Across the landing are three further double bedrooms, two with en suites, and the family bathroom.
There are two further double bedrooms located on the second floor as well as a well appointed bathroom and a generous loft area providing excellent storage. Of note is the games room, this large space is versatile in its use and would be ideally suited to an au pair, and is currently presented as TV room and gym.
The property sits well within its plot of approximately 0.4 acre and the gardens are an attractive feature with a large lawn to the rear wrapping around the house. There are a number of mature and specimen trees providing privacy and seclusion. Well stocked flowering beds provide colour throughout the seasons and the current owners have meticulously maintained the gardens. Of note is the magnificent wisteria which is found to the front of the house and offers gorgeous colours in the Spring months.
At the end of the garden and built in 2019 is an attractive John Lewis, Crane home office with power and light which offers a superb space to work from home.
The property is accessed via a wooden gate leading to a gravel driveway with parking space for multiple vehicles along with an ECV charging point.
